Forecasts

Brave Display (5/2), Ahundrednotout (3/1), Nutcracker Suite (7/1), Boy Charlton (7/1), Olly's Folly (7/1), Melisandre (10/1), Desert Dancer (12/1), Ai Chan (14/1), Abundant Courage (28/1), Rounding (28/1)

Verdict

The consistent Brave Display certainly wouldn't be winning out of turn and the first-time cheekpieces will help but she was well below last year's form on her reappearance at Listowel last month and so is opposed, though she does appear to enjoy this surface. Ahundrednotout on the other hand has been running much better this term but has questions to answer on this track. Nutcracker Suite surely must improve whereas Olly's Folly wouldn't need much more than he showed over C&D in January. ROUNDING is back off a break and sporting first-time cheekpieces for the Bolger team. He ran a nice race over 6f here in December and, somewhat perplexingly, couldn't build on it a month later from a reduced rating (behind Olly's Folly). It might pay to forgive that run now and hope the lightly-raced Vocalised gelding is ready to roll first time out.
